I have a pretty annoying thing with my lockscreen.
Whenever I lock or unlock the screen flickers. Something like screen brightness goes to max and after that to min.
I tried WidgetLocker and I have the same issue.
Using i7500 with latest GAOSP 2.2.1.
Any ideas/sugestions would be appreciated. Thank you !
Do you have the auto-adjusting screen brightness option selected?
Don't know what that is but I have auto-brightness ON.
It doesn't make any difference with auto-brightness ON or OFF.
Any ideas?
Hi,
I have an auto-brightness issue, when I turn the auto mod on the screen turn all black. I can still heard clicking sounds and when I put the N7 under a strong light ( white leds ) it turn on. So it is definitely a brightness problem. I just fix the level on 25% and everything go right, until I start the YouTube app who magically change the brightness and in the first 5sec of the video the screen turn black again I have to fix the value at 50% for avoiding that.
Anyone experience this issue ?
Any fixe ?
Do you think it's an ardware or software problem?
Thanks
Great phone but, it appears to be a bug with the screen dimming.
Regarding settings, I have everything turned off. Adapt display is off. Auto-brightness is off. Auto-adjust screen tone is off also.
I know Samsung displays dim if the phone overheats but my phone will auto-dim even if the phone is cool.
What I've found out is that the phone will only dim "permanently" when the screen is about to shut off.
For example: Set the screen shut off to 30 seconds and around the 28 second mark, the screen will dim for a couple of seconds before it shuts off. This is where the auto-dimming will "permanently" kick in. When the screen dims at the 28 second mark for a second, i'll touch the screen so it doesn't shut off. But by this time, the screen has dimmed already and won't go back to the regular brightness. I have to lock and unlock the phone for the dimmed screen to go away.
This scenario has happened every single time. Extremely annoying.
Anyone else experience this?

Hi
As the other user said it might be the software bug.
Please try this app. Disable your auto brightness and install this software https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vitocassisi.luxlite
This lite version is free. Try this. If everything works, you may consider the paid version to support the dev guy...
I just got my OP2 yesterday and noticed something. The backlight on this phone when on something white will for some reason just suddenly flick dimmer than it was and not go back unless I either reboot or mess with this brightness anyone else had this?
And yes I have adaptive brightness turned off. I remember I had this issue on my old N5 and it bugged me to no end.
I had to switch out my s7e and my 2nd unit keeps dimming the screen when in low light. I have brightness at max and auto brightness turned off. Are there any fixes for this? Does anyone know if the Base (sp) rom fixes this?
Test if your device does this: set screen to max brightness and turn auto brightness off. turn your screen off. Turn off the light in your room. Turn screen on and unlock screen. It should be a bit dimmer. Now turn screen off, turn the rooms light back on, and turn the phone back on. It should now be brighter. Does your phone do this?
Bump
Mine does it too and while this issue has been documented on different forums I have yet to see a real season or fix. Found posts about it also happening on the S6. It is irritating as I thought that auto brightness turned off should completely prevent this. You can trigger changes by covering/uncovering the proximity sensors at the front top of the phone with your fingers.
